Trump Campaign Official Claims People Are ‘Lying’ About Trump’s Racist Twitter Rant

The media misled People when it reported that President Donald Trump ordered progressive congresswomen of colour to “go back” to their “crime-infested” hellhole nations, a Trump 2020 re-election marketing campaign official insisted Sunday. Based on Matt Wolking, Trump did say that, however he didn’t say without end. The president identified that they might return to the U.S. after they assist “fix” issues within the different nations he imagines they’re from.

Three of the 4 progressive feminine lawmakers he was clearly focusing on had been born in the USA. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) have more generations of Americans of their ancestries than Trump, whose paternal grandfather and mom had been immigrants. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) was born in Detroit to Palestinian immigrant dad and mom. Solely Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota was born out of the country — Somalia — and moved as a baby to America, the place she turned a citizen.

“Anyone who says the president told members of Congress to go back to where they came from is lying,” tweeted Wolking, communications deputy director of Donald J. Trump for President. “He told them to ‘Then come back and show us how it is done.’” Wolking’s tweet included a screenshot of Trump’s message wherein he clearly writes: “Why don’t they go back” to the “crime-infested places from which they came.”

Anybody who says the president advised members of Congress to return to the place they got here from is mendacity.

So, @AOC is actually the rep of the place Donald Trump grew up. And that’s the place she’s from. Born and raised in New York. @RashidaTlaib is from Michigan. @AyannaPressley is from Illinois.@IlhanMN escaped battle, got here right here as a refugee at age 10, and have become a citizen at 17.

Go to Antarctica and soften all of the ice after which come again. And in the event you say I advised you to “go to Antarctica” that is a LIE as a result of I mentioned you might come again after you melted all of the ice.
